Hansgrohe EcoRight shower system
EcoRight is trendsetting
Climate protection starts with showering, ecological action with hand washing. As an advocate of the value of water, Hansgrohe assumes a pioneering role in dealing with this precious resource. Hansgrohe faucets and showers fitted with EcoRight technology require up to 60% less water than conventional products – and without any loss of comfort. Lower hot water consumption means lower energy requirements. And that means: fewer CO2 emissions and lower costs.
Tips from Hansgrohe to help conserve water

Stiebel Eltron Accelera® 300 Heat Pump Water Heater
The beauty of heat pump water heating technology is that the amount of electrical energy needed to create hot water is greatly reduced compared to a conventional electric tank water heater. Every watt the Accelera's compressor and fan use generates 3-5 watts of hot water. The higher the ambient air temperature is, the greater the efficiency of the unit. This ground breaking technology redefines the efficiency a water heater is capable of.
In a warm climate, the unit can be placed either in the garage, where it takes heat from the
outside air, or inside the house, where it helps with the air conditioning load. In a cooler climate, the unit is typically
placed in the basement where it also acts as a dehumidifier. You get hot water at a discount and a dry basement as well.
If the heat pump cannot keep up with the demand for hot water then a specially engineered 1700 W
electric backup element supplies additional heat to the water.
The 80 gallon tank is designed to give 50 gallons
of hot water before the backup heating element activates.

NORITZ dual flame burner
This style of burner favors the formation of N2, which is inert, instead of NOx, and has no detrimental effects on the environment.
This technology is actually very well developed. It has been around since the early 1970’s, utilized mainly in fossil fuel power plant applications (i.e. coal/natural gas). It has further been incorporated into higher end furnaces/boilers. Noritz, however, is the first tankless water heater manufacturer to incorporate this technology into their water heaters.
This technology is in all Noritz heaters.
